Na Gardaí

[whitey]

Aye, the one where clearly starts lunging after the first two shots are fired!

Did they hit him? Were they warning shots? You heard the conversation between him and the guards from that video in sure as well?

The reality of the matter is that nobody knows exactly what happened yet, but you have already decided you know the full facts of it.

I don't know the full facts. I know enough (as does anyone with any semblance of rational thought) that it was dealt with in the wrong manor.

Please tell me what the right way to do this was? From what I see the guards tried a couple of options to diffuse the situation and there's a video of him clearly lunging at gardai, likely with a knife. I haven't all the facts but I can't say from first glance that the guards acted in the wrong.

Anything other than riddling him with bullets? How many times did they try tasering him? How many times did they try pepper spray? I find it odd that they were able to reportedly track him for 2 hours but he was only a threat to them/the public when he was at his own front door step. The video shows him lunging at them AFTER the first shot

There was defo at least one shot previous to the video

At the very start of the video, ie. the first 0.5 seconds, you can hear the echo from a previous shot - but not the actual bang of the shot

Then there are five shots you can hear clearly

So at least six shots fired overall

It makes sense that there would have been previous shots because why would people have started filming from a distance otherwise

It's sounds like that alright but that's unconfirmed. People had been videoing previous to that so perhaps the video has been edited.

Believe it or not, the reason for the lag in timing of the shot is that sound travels at a slower speed to light.

It's working sadly.
A few reasonable people I know were repeating the lie that he had 32 previous convictions.

So rather than as an act of respectful remembrance, you only posted this because you wanted to use/abuse the victims to take dig at people on this board? That would be something you have repeatedly been accused of doing on this board. And yet you claim you have respect for the dead.

More neck on view than at a giraffe enclosure at the zoo.

So to mention it is to abuse their memory? What a convenient take that is.

Not even remotely my point.

Absolutely no issue with anyone mentioning it. My point is that his intro to the link made it abundantly clear that Rossfan's only motivation in mentioning it was to take a dig at other posters in the board. In other words, using victims for point scoring. The sort of thing that he does on a routine basis and yet still somehow thinks nobody can see what he's at. Utterly shameless.

[Rossfan]

Brainwashed Provos are the only type of people who think mentioning murdered employees of the State is somehow point scoring.
In their new found holier than thou existences they don't like to have murders in the 26 Cos. they've airbrushed being brought up.
Ever noticed when young Quinn's brutal savage murder is brought up they immediately attack the messenger instead of the gang of scum who broke every bone in a lads body.

Dodging the point again. You didn't mention it for the sake of mentioning it. You mentioned it as a means of taking a dig at other posters. Hence your opening line with the link. Using victims for point scoring. You just cant help yourself. Cretinous.

The post is there for everyone to see. People can see that his comment on the article wasn't around the victims. He used it as a disgusting point scoring exercise and if he had any wit he'd remove his comment and post something more respectful. I doubt that will happen given the poster.

2 sensitive brainwashed ones not happy that the disgusting murder of 2 State employees by a gang of Prove kidnapper criminals is being mentioned on a thread called na Gardai.
Kind of conflicts with the new cuddly populist image...

Hmmm...Wasn't one of the two men killed by friendly fire from the Gardaí in that incident? Or at least, hasn't the state refused to release evidence that would confirm or refute the long standing suspicion?

Anyway, you're not doing much to refute the notion that you are only using the two deceased men as a vehicle to score points. Ghoulish behaviour.

I'm not brainwashed and I'm not a provo but I can spot a FG sc**bag when I see one ( not you obv.  someone else ...somewhere..)

Show me where I have an issue with the content of the link you posted? I'll wait....

My issue, was your disgusting attempt to use it to point score. Your attempts at deflection and whataboutery on previous threads only adds to this. And again trying to rewrite that I had some issue with the content of the link you posted rather than your post shows how disingenuous a poster you really are.
